Portrait of the secret keeper

Updated: May 20, 2022

'The Secret Keeper'

Our bodies spoke aloud, yet we never said much.
Our tongue twisted in the sensitivity of lust.

Trembling as if I had never been touched.

Although, seeing believes—I close my eyes.
Every tasteful sensation is a pleasant surprise.

Tell me, how do I lose my power?
Selfish of time to give me an hour.

As the break of day interrupted the moon,
Time ended too soon.

I realise tomorrow has come.
The night is certainly done.

Everything put back into place,
Leaving no evidence, but a memory of time and space.
Sadly, because it ended so well,
It's the best-kept secret I'll never tell.
